RELIC ENTERTAINMENT TAKES HOME
TWO WINS AT 2nd THE ANNUAL ELAN AWARDS

THQ Inc. and Relic Entertainment
announced today that Relic was the recipient of two awards, “Best PC Game” for
Company of Heroes and “Outstanding Innovation in Gaming” for Company of Heroes:
Opposing Fronts, at the 2nd Annual Canadian Awards for the Electronic and
Animated Arts (ELAN). The Elan Awards honor Canadian industry professionals and
students, in several categories spanning the Video Game, Animation and Digital
Arts Entertainment Industries.

These awards join the Company of
Heroes’ long list of accolades, which include “Best PC Game”, “Game of the
Year”, and “Best Strategy Game” awards from several leading game publications
worldwide. Company of Heroes: Opposing Fronts, a stand alone companion product
to the highly-rated Company of Heroes, won for “Outstanding Innovation in
Gaming”. One of only two awards open to worldwide competition, the innovation
award is bestowed upon a game that advances game development technically or
creatively, or by establishing an entirely new genre.

"We are very proud to have been
recognized by the Elan's for the hard work and craftsmanship our teams put into
the Company of Heroes and Company of Heroes: Opposing Fronts titles," said
Tarrnie Williams, General Manager of Relic Entertainment. “We continue our focus
of innovating and expanding upon the RTS genre through original and licensed
games, to produce more great games in the future.”
